We begin in this journey with a walk in a palm forest, courtesy of former poet laureate of the US, William Merwin. https://merwinconservancy.org/2021/07/palm-by-w-s-merwin/ The palms remind us to go slowly, and be who and what we truly are. And know that this is enough.
Coming Home to our breath, resting in the complete breath and rhythmic breathing, we calibrate to our own inner knowing. With our breath and meditation practice we come into a knowing of our inner stability, peace and the divine love that pours out for us at all times.
If you’d like a fun tool to create mindfulness throughout your day, try the Mindfulness Bell app. It can be set to ring a tone at regular times or randomly. The bell sounds are quite nice.
